Re: FNM ... 60 minute chart ... climatic buy set up ........

I mentioned being in FNM.

Message 22023338

After price gapped up at the open, FNM had a steep sell off on the 60 minute chart. The price drop was steep enough to create a climatic buy set up. The strategy was to buy just above the high of the previous bar with the anticipation that once a higher high was established, price would gain some upside momentum.

I closed this trade out for a small profit at the close. Given the amount of volume in the last hour, I did not appreciate the topping tail that formed on the last candle.

The trade was profitable, it just didn't close strong enough for me to hold overnight.
